I love Small Batch 471 also but my big beef has been total inconsistency with bottles nearly the same age. It's a shame because when that beer is on, it's totally sick (in a good way). No bash on what you said, just putting in my 2 cents since opinions are like ***holes and everybody has one!!

No worries.

I have only bought the bottles of it once so I couldn't reference consistency of them. My one trial was very positive. The other couple time I got to try it was on tap at their taproom pre/post Rockies games, which was also positive.

Decided to go against the grain and not have Daisy Cutter first. This is DAMN GOOD. The hop aromas are so bright with citrus peels and rinds and pineapple. Taste it nicely hoppy as well. So delicious. One of my favorite Blondes ever I'd say. Will get more somehow.

Holy damn. This is great! So much chocolate malt with very balanced fruity yeast esters and honey. Whatever all the rest of those herbs and stuff are, doesn't matter because those flavors dominate. Love it.
